"git apply" was not very careful about reading from, removing,
updating and creating paths outside the working tree (under
--index/--cached) or the current directory (when used as a
replacement for GNU patch).

* jc/apply-beyond-symlink:
  apply: do not touch a file beyond a symbolic link
  apply: do not read from beyond a symbolic link
  apply: do not read from the filesystem under --index
  apply: reject input that touches outside the working area
